4.0 out of 5 stars Hockey Fitness Review, February 10, 2000

By	Andrew J Stack (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hockey Fitness: Year Round Conditioning on and Off the Ice (Paperback)

as a former college hockey player i found this book essential to staying in 'hockey' shape during the off-season. I used this book in conjucntion with another book called, "Jumping into Plyometrics" by Dr. Donald Chu, to develop a good offseason workout.

Hockey fitness had general on ice/off ice drills for hockey season and off season. I recommended this book to players and coaches of all ages (adults included) who want to improve thier level of play.
